Chargers vs Patriots : The New England Patriots are 15-0 straight up and 12-3 against the spread in their last 15 games at home. The Patriots hope to extend their home winning streak to 16 games with a victory this Sunday afternoon over the Los Angeles Chargers.

In one of the most-anticipated matchups of the NFL Divisional schedule, the 12-4 Los Angeles Chargers will travel to New England to take on the 11-5 Patriots on Sunday. Kickoff is at 1:05 p.m. ET and the hosts are four-point favorites, with the total at 47.5 in the latest Patriots vs. Chargers odds. The latest Patriots vs. Chargers forecast is calling for temperatures in the 20s with light winds out of the north. It’s the smallest spread of the weekend, as the Chargers aren’t your normal No. 5 seed after a strong season where the Chiefs just happened to be a little better in the AFC West. The winner heads to Kansas City next Sunday. Before you make your Patriots vs. Chargers picks, be sure to check out the latest NFL predictions from SportsLine’s Projection Model.

SportsLine’s proprietary computer model went 176-80 straight up last season and beat more than 95 percent of CBS Sports Office Pool players in 2016 and ’17. It also performed better than 98 percent of experts tracked by NFLPickWatch.com during that span. Additionally, it went 48-34 on A-rated picks against the spread last season, and $100 bettors who have followed it the past two seasons are up nearly $4,000.

The model has continued to nail its top-rated picks in 2018-19, entering the divisional round on a blistering 16-6 run. For the season, it is now 30-15 on all top-rated picks, extending its two-year run to a strong 78-49. It also went 170-84 on straight-up NFL picks during the regular season, ranking inside the top 10 on NFLPickWatch.com. Additionally, it hit all four NFL spread picks on Wild Card Weekend. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

Now, it has crunched the numbers for Chargers vs. Patriots (stream live on fuboTV) from every angle and simulated the game 10,000 times. We can tell you it’s leaning Under, but it also says one side of the spread has all the value, making it a must-back. That pick is only available at SportsLine.

Dallas Cowboys vs Los Angeles Rams : Four games are on the NFL Divisional schedule, starting in a raging snowstorm in Kansas City, where the Chiefs host the Indianapolis Colts. The area is under a winter storm warning, but the Chiefs are still favored by five. And despite the weather, the Over-Under remains the highest of the week, and one of the largest

NFL totals of the entire season, at 56.5. Saturday’s nightcap features the Los Angeles Rams laying a touchdown to the visiting Dallas Cowboys. On Sunday, the New England Patriots (-4) welcome the Los Angeles Chargers to frigid Foxborough. Then, the Divisional Round schedule’s lone indoor game features the New Orleans Saints hosting the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles as eight-point favorites.

If you’re looking for a huge payout during the NFL Divisional schedule, there’s nobody better to listen to than Hammerin’ Hank Goldberg. Hammer enjoyed a 17-year ESPN run in which he had only two losing seasons. Last year, he competed against 10 top handicappers in the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s NFL Challenge and beat them all, finishing 50-29-6 against the spread. Now he’s sharing his strongest NFL picks at SportsLine — and it shows.

Over the past three weeks, Goldberg has been scorching hot. He has nailed 86 percent of his best bets in that span, including last week when he recommended the Colts (+1) at Houston. The result: Indy raced to a 21-0 lead and was never threatened in a sweat-free Wild Card cash. Anyone who has followed his lead is way up.

For the Divisional Round of the 2019 NFL Playoffs, Hammer is getting down hard on three picks. If you parlay them, you’d be looking at a strong 6-1 payout, just like Hammer delivered in Week 17. This week, we can tell you Hammer is riding the Rams (-7) as they host the Cowboys on Saturday night.

Goldberg knows the Rams boast one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL. L.A. finished the regular season averaging over 32 points per game, which ranked second in the league. Los Angeles had the No. 2-ranked total offense and scoring offense because it finished in the top five in passing and rushing this season. Rams head coach Sean McVay has a number of weapons at his disposal and uses that offensive versatility to catch opposing defenses off-guard.

Rams quarterback Jared Goff has also been lighting up the scoreboard at home this season. In fact, Goff is completing over 68 percent of his passes for 22 touchdowns and just three interceptions in games at L.A. Memorial Coliseum.

On defense, the Rams seem to have found their footing in recent weeks. L.A. has held its opponents to 16 points or fewer in three of the last five games and has been a serious problem for opposing teams all season, ranking third in the NFL with 30 total takeaways. L.A.’s defense is led by Aaron Donald, who finished the regular season with a league-leading 20.5 sacks.

Hammer also has identified an underdog in prime position to spring a playoff upset. The line on that game is way off, Goldberg says, so it’s a must-play for any NFL parlay. You need to see it before locking in any NFL picks this week.

NFL Playoffs 2019 : The team that started 11-2, boasts the NFL’s most dynamic young quarterback and, for so long, seemed like the obvious favorite to go to the Super Bowl? Or the team that started 1-5, only to win 10 of their last 11 games with an MVP candidate of their own,

That’s the big question surrounding the first Divisional Round game on tap for this weekend, when the Kansas City Chiefs will host the Indianapolis Colts for a chance to advance to the AFC Championship.

A year after finishing 4-12 and playing without quarterback Andrew Luck, the Colts took a monumental step forward in 2018 under first-year head coach Frank Reich. Not only did Luck find his footing, throw the second most touchdowns of his career and return to the Pro Bowl, but Indy unearthed a Rookie of the Year candidate in Darius Leonard and shored up its defense, going 9-1 to finish the regular season and then stomping all over the rival Houston Texans in a 21-7 Wild-Card win. Judging purely off momentum, there isn’t a better team in the NFL outside of maybe the No. 1-seed New Orleans Saints than Reich’s Colts. NFL Playoffs Live Stream Free 2019.

But then there’s the Chiefs, who had the rest of the league in awe for the majority of the season. Coach Andy Reid has had Kansas City competitive since he arrived back in 2013, but never has Arrowhead Stadium played host to video-game production like that of the 2018 Chiefs offense, which saw Patrick Mahomes toss 50 touchdowns in his first full year as a starter and the team score at least 30 points in 12 of its 16 regular-season games. The only downside in K.C. might be on defense, which has been an issue all season, and the fact that the Chiefs enter the playoffs on a 1-2 stretch and with a murky history of home postseason success under Reid

After a two-week break, the Chiefs look to resume their offensive onslaught when they host the Colts in Saturday’s AFC Divisional Playoffs. It’s a 4:35 p.m. ET kickoff from Arrowhead Stadium and the first game of the NFL Divisional schedule. Kansas City scored 30-plus points 12 times during the regular season, earning the AFC’s top seed with a 12-4 record. Indianapolis (10-6) advanced by manhandling Houston, 21-7, in the Wild Card round last week. The Kansas City weather has been a hot topic on Saturday, with light snow now falling after the area was sacked with a winter storm warning. Late money has been coming in on the Colts, as Kansas City fell from -5.5 to -4.5 ahead of kickoff. The over-under, or total number of points Vegas thinks will be scored, has dropped from 56 to 54.5 in the latest Colts vs. Chiefs odds. Before you make any Colts vs. Chiefs picks and NFL Playoff predictions, you have to see what No. 1 NFL expert R.J. White picked.

The advanced computer model simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, and those who have followed it have seen massive returns. SportsLine’s proprietary computer model went 176-80 last season and beat over 95 percent of CBS Office Pool players in 2016 and ’17. It also performed better than 98 percent of experts tracked by NFLPickWatch.com during that span. Additionally, it went 48-34 on A-rated picks against the spread last season, and $100 bettors who followed it the past two seasons are up nearly $4,000.

The model has continued to nail its top-rated picks in 2018-19, entering the divisional round on a blistering 16-6 run. For the season, it is now 30-15 on all top-rated picks, extending its two-year run to a strong 78-49. It also went 170-84 on straight-up NFL picks during the regular season, ranking inside the top 10 on NFLPickWatch.com. Additionally, it hit all four NFL against-the-spread picks on Wild Card Weekend. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

Now the model has dialed in on Colts vs. Chiefs (stream live on fuboTV). We can tell you it’s leaning over, but it has also generated a strong point-spread pick that’s hitting well over 50 percent of the time. You can only see that one over at SportsLine.

The model has factored in that since the Chiefs lost running back Kareem Hunt, Damien Williams has filled in admirably. He is averaging 5.1 yards per carry and has scored six touchdowns in limited action. Fellow back Spencer Ware (hamstring) reportedly won’t play on Saturday despite carrying a questionable tag, but Williams is more than capable of shouldering the load.

Regardless of who’s in the backfield, quarterback Patrick Mahomes is the engine that drives Kansas City’s offense. In just his second pro season, the MVP front-runner tossed a remarkable 50 touchdowns and nearly 5,100 yards, second-best in the league.

But just because Kansas City has plenty of weapons doesn’t mean it will cover the Chiefs vs. Colts spread on Saturday.

The model knows the Colts won 10 of their last 11 games as their peerless offensive line protected quarterback Andrew Luck (NFL-low 18 sacks) and opened huge holes for running back Marlon Mack. The second-year player gashed the Texans for 148 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries last week and has scored six times in his last five games. Kansas City struggles mightily against the run, ranking 31st in yards per carry allowed (5.0), so Mack could be in for another huge game.

While the Colts have covered seven straight versus winning teams, the Chiefs have failed to cover their last six home playoff games. Kansas City is also just 4-4 against the spread as a home favorite this season and 1-3 versus teams like the Colts that allow fewer than 21 points per game (20.6).

Who wins Colts vs. Chiefs? And which side of the spread hits in well over 50 percent of simulations? Visit SportsLine now to see which side of the Colts vs. Chiefs spread you need to be all over Saturday, all from the incredible computer model that has returned nearly $4,000 to $100 bettors.
